Legacy FC signs Cosmo Alexandre, will allow kickboxing bouts

After a six-fight run in Bellator MMA, including consecutive wins in his five most recent bouts, Cosmo Alexandre has signed with Legacy FC.

Promoter/owner Mick Maynard alerted MMAjunkie about the signing. Alexandre is slated for a promotional debut at Legacy FC 28 on Feb. 21, though an opponent hasn’t been finalized.

According to Maynard, as part of Alexandre’s multi-fight deal, the veteran kickboxer will be allowed to participate in kickboxing bouts while under contract with Legacy FC.

Alexandre, who’s a part of the Florida-based Blackzilians fight team, is a former world champion who owns a 41-14 pro kickboxing record.

The 31-year-old Brazilian signed with Bellator in 2011 and suffered a decision loss to Josh Quayhagen in his official MMA debut. However, he’s since posted five straight wins, which includes three knockouts and a victory over Quayhagen in their rematch in November 2012, which marks his most recent MMA bout.

UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey is probably the greatest female fighter on the planet, which is a tremendous feat. So why are we seemingly so obsessed with arguing about whether she could beat up men?
